exhaustion

I'm working at my computer. 
I get up to go upstairs to get something, I forget what now. 
I take two steps.
The third step, my foot swishes by my pajama pant leg.
Ah....but it does not completely pass my foot.
My big toe gets stuck in the pant leg, just as i start to lift my other foot up to take another step.
I fall on one knee, landing on nothing else, just my one knee, hands soon follow after, then the other knee.
I skinned it bad, part of pajama cotton are stuck in skinned knee. 
Knee is now swollen.
It hurts to walk.
Curse my clumsiness.
What made it worth it all?
The image of me falling, even though I just appeared to trip over nothing and just...well...fell.
Dad is down here too, I rolled over onto my back after taking a minute to breathe, and saw my dad's face of complete and utter confusion.
Priceless 
Yes, I am laughing out loud while I read this, perhaps I may be too tired....:)

le sigh

I am so freaking tired. It's been a long week and it's only 2:10 AM Wednesday morning, I just finished an assignment that took an hour and a half longer than I thought it would take. *sob* I have to get up at 530 to get ready to go to school....I also found out that not only do I have a final the day after the honeymoon, but I also have another paper due....*pulls hair* yeah, we just had to pick a time when it would be exam happy time for me (I have a mid term the monday before we get married and another final the day after). I also have to read at least 3 or 4 more chapter books before we get married as well....I just pray I'll have energy to stay awake through the ceremony at the least!
so tired....
(i hate my professor tonight, he's the author of the book, the book comes with a cd that we have to work with and supposedly print from, he made it on a mac, he made the program with another colleague....and it sucks, other than that, he's a great teacher. I now know more than I ever thought I would about picture books).

Getting close!

one week I get endowed, two weeks, i get married. :D

Cafe

So I went to this Cafe in little ol Heber to get baklava and a French Vanilla Italian Soda (the owner herself made it this time, YAY!), and she mentioned how she hadn't seen me there for awhile, so I told her I was busy with school and work and wedding plans. We talked about the wedding stuff, then when she hands me my drink she goes "OH! wait!" and grabs this multi colored sprinkle thing that has LOVE labeled on the outside and sprinkles some in the drink, and then grabs another multi colored sprinkle thing that has MAGIC on the outside, and sprinkles that in. "There, now you can't say I haven't given you anything for your wedding! I gave you magic and love! Good luck!" 
I just thought it was cute :)

Addresses

28 addresses. I don't have any of my relatives addresses (well most of them). Only 7 of those addresses are non relatives, and I have been able to find e-mails for all but one of them....and that last one I have to make a phone call for that one. then the bridal shower I should be able to get all 21 addresses if not from themselves then from their mothers. :) 
It's a lot of work, and has taken a lot out of me, but it's good to know I'm getting closer to get the list complete before the invitations come so that I can be sure to put the right inserts in what cards, etc. :) Getting closer, 16 more days!!!!!! :)
*Edit - It's times like this that make me feel like I know way too many people and have no clue how I came into contact with so many, yet, I do keep constant contact with a lot of them. So weird.

Hair for bridal shots

Did bridals today, talk about curly! I also had a TON of fun, don't know how I'm going to choose just one picture for the guest book table....we may have two :) (no these are not bridal pictures of me in the dress, just the back of my hair :D I'm not ruining the surprise for anyone!)

I couldn't find the other ones!

Overdue Update

Thursday, Friday and Saturday were such busy days, I can hardly believe I even had a Sunday (which was busy too).
Uber long update:

Thursday I did homework all morning at my mom's work (had to catch a ride with her since my clutch broke down on my car a few months ago, and won't be fixed for a little while longer due to expenses on the wedding :) which is totally worth it in my opinion). Then afterwards we had to head over to Salt Lake City to present a Cued Language presentation at the ALDAcon conference (Association of Late Deafened Adults conference...national conference). after which we had to come straight home and work like crazy on some newspaper stuff for Studies Weekly.
Friday, I had to get up and catch a ride with my brother Michael to Salt Lake City (SLC) to drop me off at Bryan's while Michael was on his way to work. After that Bryan and I went and picked up the engagement pictures on disk, looked for rings for him, finally found one! Then we went and put my name on his checking account, then got the tuxes set up for all the men at Men's Wearhouse. After which he dropped me off at the ALDAcon again to make a presentation with a coalition that I am on about what we do in the state of Utah. After that, we dropped off the engagement pictures at the invitation lady's place, which took longer than we thought it would, then we sped to provo where Bryan did some stuff with my brother Michael while I was doing homework for three hours, went out to dinner around 930 with my family, and went home (made it home aorund midnight). I was exhausted.
Saturday I had to get up at 7:00 to get ready to leave at 8:00 to go start looking for dresses, my first and only appointment was at 9:00. My mom and sisters came with. Luckily, I found everything I wanted in that ONE store, and the dress fit perfectly, no alterations needed, nothing, it's awesome! I'm really excited. I tried to find a pic of it online, but I can't find one, so guess I'll just have to wait until I have pictures from the wedding. Then we went looking for bridesmaids dresses, what a freaking pain in the neck. We may end up having them made for us instead of buying them from a store. We did a girl's lunch, then dropped me off at home in which I had 30 minutes to shower and change and stuff for my bridal shower at 3. Went there, and was there until 730 (the shower itself was over at 430, just got so caught up in chatting with all the girls, that it started dying away around 7). Came home, went out to dinner with bryan, and did homework for the rest of the night.
Sunday, Church, nap, homework for the rest of the day, and i rewarded myself to watch part of Ocean's Eleven with Bryan, that was nice.

I can't believe it.....only 24 more days until I get married. :) I'm so excited! YAY! :)

Stress

Well I guess it's not really a why do I do this, but more of a, how in the world do I manage to make myself so busy? This week has been crazy all week, and tonight, I started breaking down and was ready to have a huge fight over something small and ridiculous, so my mom took me out to eat to help me to just calm down and breathe for a bit, it helped....a lot. Still, when I got home, I was getting so uptight and frustrated, that I got mad at my chair cause I couldn't get the stupid handle to pull out so that I could rock back and forth in my chair. Eventually got to the point where I was sitting on the floor and pulling on the handle while pushing the chair with my feet, yeah, that insane. I got weird looks from family members all around. But So far, I hav ebeen able to do every assignment and reading before the class starts, and I have not fallen asleep in any class, and it's the second week, so that's a very very good sign. I also actually enjoy all the classes, and the homework, it's just so much to do, I can't wait to get the independent study class done then I'll have 6 classes instead of 7 to do. But, this is the happiest I've been in a long long time, and I'm enjoying it. I feel I'm doing well so far with classes (knocks on wood), I enjoy the classes, I'm getting things done, even though I still have billions to do. I've managed to go on no more than 4 hours of sleep every night this week, which is something I haven't done in a very long time. I keep telling myself that once I'm married, things will calm down cause then I won't have things to do with the wedding every weekend, that's part of what's driving me up the wall cause there's just so much to do and everything is just so freaking expensive. 
and my cat just bit me. ow.

Good things

2. Bryan and I found a place to live and now have an apartment to live in, he moves in October 1st. :D
3. May have found the reception center to have the reception in near the Salt Lake temple, gorgeous, and very victorian. I love it :) 
4. 33 more days until the wedding. :) 
5. I got a bright red day planner, a purple back pack, and a pink and white striped binder. :D I have to be a girl sometimes. :)
